Empires and Bureaucracy in World History: From Late Antiquity to the Twentieth Century
Peter Crooks
This book provides a global history of the power and limits of imperial rule from antiquity to the present. Written by a team of leading scholars, it sheds new light on the rise and fall of empires, and questions the association of bureaucratic rationality with 'modernity' and the 'Rise of the West'.
